Ok, some lights are coming on. In my research the places that speak of provisional do have links to many, many "sport oriented/commercial" sites. The more I dig the more I find that these terms "may be associated with the sport aspects" of karate/karate-do.
Now, this does not mean that my comments are directed toward all systems that use this means of achieving black belt for one system and its participant has a lot of my respect in their studies and practice - diligent and intelligent and curious and seeking to learn, etc.
The sites I pulled up in my search also talk about "black belt candidates" which, of course, sparked my curiosity.
Hm, interesting and another one that says to me, "Hey, you are a bit out of touch aren't you Charles?"
